I bought the book too, it's great. Just wish comenting  highlighting
were enabled so that I could bookmark, highlight, fix typos ;-) as I
go along -- but there must be a reason for locking this PDF feature?

 This is the same content as the online book but converted to PDF.
 There are significant additions and changes compared to the 2nd
 edition.

 - new chapter on components, plugins and plugin_wiki example
 - many new DAL features including list:reference, list:integer,
 list:string, belongs, contains, computed fields, virtual fields,
 shortcuts
 - new custom login methods (including openid, oauth, prx)
 - new validators
 - new helpers (including markmin)
 - application-level routes and other routes customizations
 - description of new Auth and Crud settings/messages.
 - description of new default layout and how to change it
 - {{blocks}} in template
 - examples are revised to account for new features
 - running background processes
 - sending signed and encrypted emails
 - more info on GAE deployment
 - new screenshots
 - may bug fixes.

 It contains 537 pages.

 Thanks to Alvaro, Bruno, Denes, Felipe, Graham, Jonathan, Hans, Kyle,
 Mark, Michele, Richard, Robin, Roman, Scott, Shane, Sharriff, Sriram,
 Sterling, Stuart, Thadeus for proofreading this and previous versions
 of the book.

 It costs one dollar more than 2nd edition, I guess it is because of
 the increased number of pages. I actually reduced my cut.

 Hopefully it will be available in print soon.

 I will take some help in converting to ePub.

It was not done on purpose. They processed the PDF I provided (which I
believe is unlocked).

Hello Massimo!

 I will take somehelpin converting to ePub.
I yesterday found this application which can help you:

Calibre: A ebook library:

# New tool to help prepare EPUBs for publication [0.7.8]

calibre now contains a new command line tool called epub-fix that can
automatically fix common problems in EPUB files that cause them to be
rejected by poorly designed publishing services. The tool is plugin
based for extensible functionality in the future. Currently, it can
fix unmanifested files and workaround the date and svg
preserveaspectratio bugs of epubcheck.
http://calibre-ebook.com/whats-new

Get it here:

Hope that this helps.
